- Difficulty: Intermediate 💪
Key: F# Why Can’t I Intro: F# B D#m C# F# B D#m C# Verse: F# Why can’t I unfriend you? A#m Why can’t I quit you? B
Fade you to black
Slip your name off the screen
D#m C#
Like it never meant a thing.
F#
Just another rando
A#m
In the gallery of my past,
B
A great story,
Already told.
C#
But I keep hangin’ on
G#m
Still drawing life
F#/A#
From the thinnest thread—
B
That hint of promise
That lingers online.
Chorus:
F#
Why can’t I let go of someone
C#
Who never held me back?
G#m
Why do I carry silence
B
Like a code I cannot crack?
F#
You never asked for any of this,
C#
But I gave it my all, the same
G#m
One-sided love,
B
No one to blame.
F# B D#m C#
Verse:
F#
I wonder why
A#m
You won’t unfriend me first
As if that means
B
You’re still watching,
Still curious,
Still caring
C#
In some small way
About me.
G#m
Maybe you’re staying
Just to see if I’ll write
B
One more song
A#m
About you
G#m
One more desperate attempt
To conjure a love
B C#
You never held.
Chorus:
F#
Why can’t I let go of someone
C#
Who never held me back?
G#m
Why do I carry silence
B
Like a code I cannot crack?
F#
You never asked for any of this,
C#
But I gave it my all, the same
G#m
One-sided love,
B
No one to blame.
Outro:
F#
But I’m tired of carrying
C#
The weight of silence.
G#m B
Goodbye.
F# B D#m C#
F# B D#m C#
B
I loved you.
F#
That was enough. Published:
